Water Lilys and Flower

Thanks for your comments.

Okay, was the purple flower there or did you put it there? Funny thing is, it is an exceptional image with the flower cropped out. The flower seems to stand out too much from the softly shaped, green lily pads. Perhaps the violet colouring of the flower is not right for the primarily green subject matter. Still, very nice!

No, John. I didn't put it there. If I did, I'd also have had to put the reflection in the water underneath it. That would be quite a trick! Thanks for your comment. Please rate it!

I can't help but see two different photos here. So here they come.

And.....

Excellent suggestion. It never occurred to me to crop it as you have demonstrated. I'll keep that in mind.
